Sci-Fi and Horror isn't always glamourous. For every Luke Skywalker, or Hannibal Lector, there's somebody who has to clean up. Yes, we can't all be X-Wing pilots, or psychiatrists.

This week, your humble host discusses two topics for the (Vincent) price of one.
First, in a segment called, The Five Minute Thought, I talk about collectors and fandom. I ask the question, "Can it go too far?" When we have people in costumes making marriage proposals, Star Wars--themed weddings, and children named for characters in movies and TV shows--does fandom go too far sometimes? While I think it's up to the individual, others may disagree. Either way, it's a topic worth discussing.
I also give an overview of the new Hellraiser comic book, SPOILER FREE! The new eight issue series is co-written by the man himself, CLIVE BARKER! A glorious return to the world of Cenobites, Kirsty Cotton, and puzzle boxes from hell!
Plus, I look forward to spending a Saturday at Steel City Con--Pgh's largest toy and comic convention! http://www.steelcitycon.com
